What if every single nation gave all it's citizens like, 1 million dollars? That would stop poverty right? If all the nations gave their people money, then money would just overall increase in the world right? wouldn't that help a couple of the problems we have today? Or am I making a mistake here. . .?

Kibbutz -- a society where all income is shared by the populace. This turns to everyone not doing their fair share of work by being lazy, we do nothing beneficial to the society, and we ultimately get destroyed in the end. As simple as that.

I mean the ENTIRE world would, not just the US, not just Iran, but I mean the WHOLE WORLD withe EVERY CITIZEN.


If you mean something like this:

"Let's magically multiply all the capital in the world by a million times."

Otherwise what you are suggesting is meaningless- because as somebody pointed out before, money isn't real, it is a representation of value.

What you're suggesting is therefor a literal interpretation of "wealth redistribution." You can never have something for nothing :P

If everyone had 1 million dollars the worth of the dollar would go way down and you still wouldnt have as much money as you wanted.

If everyone had a Million Dollars, everything would go up in Prices, making a Million Dollars, basically a lot less than it is now, making it no different, to them having none.

the question^^

right away people would run out of suplies..no need for jobs,people quit major companies and thus causing a big chain reaction.people would by much gas,thus ridding the world of gas,people would by tickets to go places,thus wasting gas EVEN more.and metals.car makers would quit and then we wouldnt have cars anymore.then we would have old cars,and we would wreck and such,then having no more cars forcing us to walk or buy another probable out of stock car..and water..water water water,we would by sooo much water that eventually it would rid the world of all water!Some (VERY VERY few) would donate to cancer/AIDS and eventually rid the world of AIDS.one good cause i can find.
